I've raved about Phil Upchurch's playing before. The guy was one of the best studio players - on bass and guitar - of his era and could pretty much do anything. Great with a wah. Great with a fuzz. Just plain great. Here he is doing a Gordon Lightfoot cover. His timing and playing are fucking sublime. His name rarely pops up in "great guitar player" conversations but I can't imagine anyone doing this better.
